Circumventing circumcision

For 33 years of my medical career, I have witnessed constant changes in the medical reasons for the merciless mutilation of our male infants. It is a shame that we allowed and adapt the fabricated, pseudoscientific reasons to promote the unnecessary and harmful procedure, just for the enormous financial gratification.

It will be interesting to find out if men's so-called "middle life crisis" and sexual dysfunction even in younger men are not the late sequels of circumcision.
